If there are any other bodies available from
this “era”, please make it know to the Race Director for approval. No “Touring
Car” wings allowed!! Some of these bodies come with a rear deck “spoiler”
which may be installed on the body. No wing is allowed whether the body set
comes with one or not. Bodies must be cut not higher than the body
manufacturer’s cut line(s). No “slammed” bodies
allowed!!
All cars must have three (or more) racing
numbers affixed. These numbers must be affixed to both sides of the car and on
the hood. A fourth number on the trunk is optional. The actual number is of the
entrant’s choice but should look like the racing numbers found on cars of the
late ‘60’s or early ‘70’s era.
While not mandatory, it would be nice if the
bodies are painted in a “period authentic” manner as regards colors and
schemes. This doesn’t mean the body has to be painted to duplicate a
particular “real” race car from that era, merely that the body should LOOK
like something one MIGHT have seen back then. Fluorescent paints, wild graphics,
etc hadn’t been invented yet. If you look at the cars on the Historic Trans Am
site (http://www.trans-amseries.com/) you can get an idea of what cars
from this era looked like. As you can see, fairly simple paint schemes were the
norm. It’s not our intent to be absolute sticklers on this point, but it WOULD
be nice…
